“
MY FAMILY was in Fargo-Moorhead in August for a convention.
We had the entire family in a rental RV. When we arrived in
Fargo-Moorhead, the RV broke down. We looked up a local company
that services RVs. The company didn't just fix the vehicle, they ferried
us around wherever we wanted as we waited for the repairs to be
completed . When we expressed surprise at the company's
Minneapolis willingness to help, an employee told us that it was the least they
St. Paul could do to make our family feel welcome.
